Class The Class of '59 stepped forth with pride and anticipation in September, 1946, to begin kindergarten. Along the trail of learning we found new and interesting experiences in Safety Patrol, school carnivals, recreational athletic programs, Christmas festivities, marble tournaments and. those first agoni- zing dancing lessons. In the fall of 1953, we stepped forth again into a new and different area of education, again with pride and anticipa- tionf but this time there was also fear and trepidation for we moved from our elementary schools to FAIRVIEW HIGHI As seventh grade members we found many new and exciting exper- iences. We moved about the building from class to class, strug- gled valiantly with lockers, adjusted to a schedule of home- work, elected our representatives to Student Council, danced in the assembly room during lunch hour, boasted about our athletic teams and graduated from arithmetic to math. Moving along to the eighth grade, we experienced our first inter-school athletic competition, joined the ninth grade in school dances and appeared in the band and orchestra concerts. Our freshman year added many pleasant memories as we worked together on our spectacular Hawaiian Night danc'e and our Valentine party when Hugh Webber and .loan Allen reigned as king and queen. With Mr. Bristow as our coach, our freshman football and basketball teams had fine records and climaxed the year by defeating the sophomores in school track meet. There seemed to be something about our sophomore year that made us feel rather more important to our school. Perhaps it was because we elected our first class officers with Tom O'Connor as president, Dave Petrigan as vice-president, and Karen Wilson and Bill Kunkle as secretary and treasurer respec- tively. We became joiners and held memberships in the Spanish Club, the Choralettes, the Singers, the school bands and orchestras, the Current Events Club, Human Relations Club, F.T.A., Boosters, Friendship Club, G.A.A., and several of the fellows were eligible for Letterman's Club. The sophomore football te-am coached by Mr. Alexander was undefeated. Mr. and Mrs. Scanlon directed the plays presented by the sopho- mores in November. Our Roaring Twenties party was the big social event of the year. When our charcoal gray and white jackets arrived on an exceptionally warm fall day, we were definitely the hottest class in school. Second place- in the inter-class track meet, beaten only by the seniors, gave us Senior Officers The beatnik theme was perfect for the senior class party: it joined the rockets in orbit. Many projects were in line for the year-rings, Junior-Senior game, Senior Prom, and a picnic. The 137 gray-clad seniors were advised by Charles Brackney and directed by Ken Gneuhs, treasurerp Dave Petrigan, vice-president: Karen Wil. son, secretary: and Bill Kunkle, president, History cause for celebration at a year-end picnic at Geauga lake. Our junior year at FHS was crowded with many interest- ing and exciting events. We were identified by our class jackets and early in the spring our class rings arrived. Our football team fought bravely but not too well, but we were proud to have Bob Titmas listed on the All-Conference team. The basketball team fared better. As the Junior Jivers, we gave the seniors a real battle only to lose by two points in the annual Junior-Senior game-. Our class officers were Bill Kunkle, president: Dave Petrigan, vice-presidentp Karen Wilson, secre- tary: and Sue Branigin, treasurer. Sue Spooner and Sue Mid- night joined the majorettesp Donna Frost, Ginger Toddy, and Patti l.oy became cheerleaders. The new Science Club attract- ed many of our class, and junior boys also became eligible for membership in Hi-Y. Some of the girls earned enough credits to become Leaders and the junior journalism classes published the Flicker. Pat Garrett was elected president of the Student Coun- cil. The juniors entertained the seniors in May at a banquet- Hawaiian Holiday. The year ended with a win in the inter- class track meet and a fine showing in the Ohio State meet. At the last, the Senior Prom and Post-prom provided us with many pleasant and happy memories. It was hard to believe that September, 1958, would begin our last year at FHS. Re-electing our president, vice-president, and secretary, we added Ken Gneuhs to the executive committee as treasurer. Seniors were well represented in the Stagecraft- er productions. Dave Petrigan was captain of the football team which improved somewhat over the last year's record. Ken Gneuhs and Hugh Webber were elected to All-Conference with Bill Kunkle as honorable mention. Ken received the Most Valuable Player Award and he and Bell were chosen as alter- nates in the East-West game. Our football homecoming queen and her attendants were Donna Frost, Nancy Morris, and Patti Loy. The basketball royalty was lu Carr, queen, with Ginger Toddy and Kathy Lunt as attendants. There were many high- lights in our last year at FHS. We won't soon forget our first big term paper, College Board Exams, Wuthering Heights and slide rules, beatnik party and the Faculty-Letterman game, editing the yearbook, and planning for the years ahead. If we were granted one wish, it would be that our future would hold as many joys and satisfactions as have our years at Fairview High School.
